Interleukin-1 receptor antagonist protein inhibits the synthesis of IgE and proinflammatory cytokines by allergen-stimulated mononuclear cells.

American Journal of Respiratory Cell and Molecular Biology, 1994
The ability of interleukin-1 (IL-1) to activate diverse cell populations supports its role as a preeminent cytokine in the pathogenesis of chronic inflammation.

Interleukin-8 secretion and 15-lipoxygenase activity in rheumatoid arthritis: in vitro anti-inflammatory effects by interleukin-4 and interleukin-10, but not by interleukin-1 receptor antagonist protein.

British Journal of Rheumatology, 1994
We have examined the ability of interleukin-4 (IL-4), interleukin-10 (IL-10) and interleukin-1 receptor antagonist protein (IL-1ra) to regulate spontaneous interleukin-8 (IL-8) production in cultured SF mononuclear cells (SFMC) from RA.

Purification of Human Recombinant Interleukin 1 Receptor Antagonist Proteins uponBacillus subtilisSporulation

Protein Expression and Purification, 1997
Human interleukin 1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) and IL-1ra mutants were constitutively expressed in recombinant Bacillus subtilis in endocellular and active form. In order to optimize the purification of the recombinant proteins, a new method has been developed.

Recombinant interleukin-1 receptor antagonist protein prevents sensitization and intestinal anaphylaxis in Guinea pigs

Life Sciences, 1993
Recombinant interleukin-1 receptor antagonist protein (rlRAP, 0.5 mg/kg) administered intraperitoneally in guinea pigs one hour before primary and booster parenteral sensitization (1 ml) by cow milk, led to a reduced immunoglobulin E (IgE) production, as displayed by a passive cutaneous anaphylaxis test.

Characterization of an interleukin 1 receptor antagonist protein released from ultraviolet-irradiated epidermal sheet

Journal of Dermatological Science, 1997
An interleukin 1 (IL-1) inhibitor was detected in the culture supernatant of mouse epidermal sheet which had been irradiated with middle-wavelength ultraviolet (UVB) either in vitro or in vivo. Properties of the IL-1 inhibitor were consistent with those of IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra), i.e., approximate molecular size of 17 kDa by gel filtration ...

Reduced muscle protein breakdown in septic rats following treatment with interleukin-1 receptor antagonist

International Journal of Biochemistry, 1994
1. The role of interleukin-1 (IL-1) in sepsis-induced muscle proteolysis was assessed by treating septic rats with recombinant IL-1 receptor antagonist (rIL-1ra). 2. In initial experiments, we tested the effectiveness of IL-1ra in preventing muscle proteolysis induced by administration of IL-1. 3.

SEPSIS INHIBITS SYNTHESIS OF MYOFIBRILLAR AND SARCOPLASMIC PROTEINS

Shock, 1996
The breakdown of myofibrillar and sarcoplasmic (nonmyofibrillar) proteins are regulated independently in sepsis, however, the factors regulating their synthesis are unknown. In this study, we assessed the effects of sepsis and interleukin-1 receptor antagonist on sarcoplasmic and myofibrillar protein synthesis in gastrocnemius. The rate of sarcoplasmic

The effects of interleukin-1 receptor antagonist protein (IRAP) infusion following spinal cord transection in rats

Molecular and Chemical Neuropathology, 1996
A laminectomy was performed at the T5-T6 vertebral level in adult, male, Sprague-Dawley rats and the spinal cord transected with a scalpel. A group of sham animals was subjected to the same surgery without the transection step. A group of unhandled control rats was also included. A subgroup of transected animals received a subcutaneous osmotic minipump

Combined Treatment of Acute EAE in Lewis Rats with TNF-Binding Protein and Interleukin-1 Receptor Antagonist

Experimental Neurology, 1998
Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) is a term given to describe a collection of animal models representing the human disease multiple sclerosis (MS). Although not fully understood, the involvement of cytokines and the immune system in either EAE or human MS is well established.
